How to add World Clock to a Gutenberg website

Embed World Clock on Gutenberg

01

Create a World Clock plugin for Gutenberg on Common Ninja

First, create a Gutenberg World Clock plugin on Common Ninja. On the plugins catalog, find the World Clock and enter the Editor.

02

Save the World Clock plugin

When you're done creating the World Clock plugin, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the World Clock Embed Code

When you're ready to add the World Clock plugin to your Gutenberg website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the plugin embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Gutenberg website.

04

Paste the code to your Gutenberg website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Gutenberg website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Gutenberg’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the World Clock Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s World Clock plugin on your Gutenberg website.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s World Clock plugin on your Gutenberg plugin. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Gutenberg website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the World Clock plugin to your Gutenberg website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Gutenberg website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the World Clock widget when your audience or team is spread across time zones and timing matters for coordination. Showing multiple clocks with city labels on your site or dashboard makes scheduling calls, webinars, and releases easier. This is important for remote companies, global communities, and services that operate across regions. Instead of constantly converting times, visitors can reference the clock and adjust their plans. A world clock also reinforces the idea that your brand is truly international. It turns abstract time differences into a simple, always available reference that reduces mistakes and missed meetings.
